Greetings!

Chicken News is a blog that covers the excitement of having chickens, with occasional bouts of randomness. It is mostly photos, and I try to update as often as I can. Please add yourself as a follower(it isn't hard, just click follow on the opposite sidebar)! Thanks and visit again soon!

Today was a really beautiful day, and we took advantage of it by gardening and letting all of the chickens out. The Wyandottes flew up onto the swing and couldn't figure out how to get down. Jackie and Rosalynn

Here is a collection of pictures from last week I forgot to post. This is when we let the older chickens out with the younger ones. It was quite a sight; the chickens, the chicks and Shadow all enjoying the afternoon. That is Doc with the wee ones. Doc and little Dolly.

Yesterday my sister and I were busy with a big art project. We had to make a background for our church's Vacation Bible School program. The whole mural is five feet by ten feet and took us nearly six hours to paint! It was worth it, though!

Our supplies.... What a mess to clean up afterwards... Hopefully once the church is done with it we can hang it somewhere in the house... I don't think mom would agree, however...

I have been looking forward to summer for awhile, but it was still pretty sad to say goodbye to everyone at school. An extra bonus was that I got to see my fifth grade teacher for the first time since, well, fifth grade! Anyway, I woke up early this morning and let all the chickens out.

All the little chicks were blurs half the time because they were flying around being weirdos.

My dad just made some major changes on the coop. We have moved the younger chicks in with the old chicks. Dad has designed a place where the new and old chickens can meet each other without tearing eachother to shreds, which is what happens when you mix flocks.

I will go back to posting daily now, because finals are over and only a couple more days left of school!

You may have noticed I haven't posted for more than I week(wow), sorry about that. I have been really busy lately, as the year is drawing to a close there is so much school work to get done. Well, much has changed in the chicken world, but I will post about that when I have some pictures.~ Eleanor~
